Women in FIFA

So, I got FIFA 16 last night.

Me and my mate had a couple of games, then decided to go for a Women's match. We played Australia vs China.

There are players rated in the 80s and obviously the quality is nowhere near. An 80 rated female player is nowhere near an 80 rated male player. I got annoyed at two poor goals I conceded, an own goal and a ridiculous goalkeeping error, failing to control an easy backpass.

What I want to know is how the game works. My theory is that all the women's stats are doubled, so the 80 rated player is actually only 40. Obviously the game-makers would be vilified if they made the women worse than the men, but this seems to be what it is.

Any other thoughts on the mechanics of the women's game, any blunders?

And finally, do you pick the best players or the best looking players?
